    Try spraying soapy water on the truck before applying vinyl graphics. It keeps them from sticking before you squeegee them down, avoiding wrinkles and allowing you to reposition slightly. I position the graphics and make a hinge out of blue painter's tape. Then I fold them up, strip the sheet that protects the adhesive. Then fold down into place and squeegee out any bubbles.

    You need to get longer bolts for the Pindel hitch. With nylock nuts you need two threads thru the nylon.

    @P-J-W-777 Год назад +2

    I’ve always used water with very little dawn dish soap in a spray bottle or spray a way glass cleaner when the other isn’t available and I’ve never had an issue putting stickers on and I put more stickers and graphics on than I care to remember. Never had problems with that method and I’ve always been able to install then without air bubbles.
    He should have used a tape line to get them level lol.
    On another note I’m betting that Mack is going to be a really good piece of equipment for you.

  • @johnkoehler5380

    I always tape the vinyl to the surface, in the middle with the backing on, so I can get it level. Then peel the backing to the tape on one side and cut the backing off. Press that side from the middle out. Peel the other side of the backing off, and press it from the middle out. Works BEAUTIFULLY

  • @allandebuff1416
    @allandebuff1416 Год назад

    The easiest way to apply stickers is to hinge them. Tap them in place only on the top edge then flip the sticker up and peel off the backing. Then flip it back down and it will lay exactly where you had it hanging there by the tape on the top. Nice and straight. Also use water in a spray bottle with a few drops of soap in it.

Until it is dubbed with an official title, I have affectionately been calling it Edgar. Don't know why. Inside my little head, it just seems to fit. Anyway, another great video! Always enjoy watching you guys. Oh, while I'm thinking about it, don't forget to spay or neuter your new pets....cause it was raining cats and dogs there for a bit!
